Christmas stockings filled, cookies and milk for Santa, snack mix for Dad… Check off all of these Christmas shopping to-dos at Sunrise Sweet Market in City Deep.

Sun-Shiny Sweetness

Sunrise Sweet Market has been operating as a family business since 1969. Located in the heart of City Deep, this sweet factory shop prides itself on being experts in all things sugary. From local chocolate brands, to imported candies and luxury sweets, they have it all. Known officially as “The Sweet People”, the Sunrise family is made up of the most helpful and knowledgeable staff. Always willing to help customers track down their favourite fruity chew or hard candy, they are the people to go to when planning a party of any kind.

This Christmas, stock up on candy canes, marshmallow Santa Clauses, snowball chocolate eggs and much more. While we know that the last thing you want over the holidays is to ramp the kids up on sweets, it doesn’t hurt to treat them every now and again. Candy also makes great stocking fillers and party favours. Here are some of our top picks from the Sunrise Sweet Market collection:

Christmas Mallow Pop

Who knew that jolly ol’ St Nick was made of sticky, sweet marshmallow? These Christmas-themed mallow pops are almost too cute to eat. Featuring Frosty the Snowman, Santa and merry Christmas trees, these are the perfect tidbits to entertain the kids while the turkey roasts away. One box contains 18 mallow pops, so you will have more than enough for everyone.

Chocolate Yummies

There is no better time to indulge than over the holidays. Treat yourself and the kids to a few choccie Santas, chocolate snow eggs and choc lolly pops over the festive period. Leave a couple under the tree for Father Christmas to snack on too. Sunrise Sweet Market also stocks bulk Cadbury and Beacon chocolates, so you can pick up small gifts for co-workers, friends and neighbours. Nobody ever grumbled over a chocolate present, so make your way to the sweet market to bring cheer all around.

Cookies For All

No time to bake up a batch of sugar cookies or shortbread biscuits? Sunrise Sweet Market has got your back. From vanilla Oreos, to oatmeal snaps and the classic chocolate chip, they have every type of cookie imaginable. If your Father Christmas isn’t a fan of beer and biltong, leave him or her a plate of warm cookies and milk. And, even though our Joburg Christmases are scorchingly hot, you can still enjoy an after dinner biscuit and tea once the kids have nodded off to the land of sugar plums and fairies.

Savoury Moments

We know that not everyone has a sweet tooth. For those of you who prefer salty to sweet, Sunrise Sweet Market has a wide selection of savoury biscuits, potato chips, flavoured popcorn, pretzels and nuts – the ideal snack accompaniments to summer braais with the family. Dads love salty snacks too, so why not let the kids choose a variety of mixed nuts, pretzels and crackers to make up a snack pack for him?

Sunrise Sweet Market also stocks obscure flavours of all your favourite chips, including the ever elusive sour cream and mild chilli Doritos. And, if they don’t have the flavour of your childhood on hand, we are sure that they will be more than willing to hunt it down for you. All your savoury craving needs are sorted!
